The topic this week is 'Wood'. Revisiting a topic last done in Sept 2016.
Lots of room for personal interpretation as long as the subject is mainly wood. Short narratives always appreciated, novels rejected out of hand.

Contest ends August 25 at 8pm Mountain time.

Please remember that these standard rules apply:
  • Do not comment, vote, react or click “like” on images prior to the winners being announced. In keeping with our most recent tradition, violators may be awarded first place. Henceforth this shall be known as the Molly-ing rule in honour of our friend and fellow perpetrator.
  • The photographs must be your own work.
  • This contest runs for one week. If in doubt, please check the title or description.
  • At the end of the week, The Judge will choose a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place photo, providing as much feedback as possible.
  • If the Judge is unable to complete the selection within 48 hours of the deadline, then last week's 2nd place has to step in. 3rd place takes over should 2nd place be similarly unable to officiate.
  • The 1st place Winner will start a new thread with the topic/theme of their choice, and act as the Judge for that contest. (Winner has 48 hours to create a new theme, after that it defers to 2nd place).
  • Be sure to update the Contest Master List as soon as you post a new theme.
 
As usual I'll bite first.

Normally when someone ignores the no like rule that goes with this contest one of the entrants kindly points out the error, the offender says "Ooops", removes the like(s) and apologizes. All is forgiven and the contest proceeds as intended without outside interference.

In this case the guilty party, like a politician caught lying about with his mistress, has chosen to double down. Not sure how to handle this one but I'm thinking all the actual entrants may be able to breathe a bit more freely as we seem to have found next weeks judge.

The good news here is that this judge is not going to be swayed by the opinions of someone who has proven themselves unable to read or respect the rules of the game.
